Take it from me, you do not want long term cavitation. Scar tissue could form and then it's permanent or surgery time. Start the antibiotics as your Dr has ordered. Arikayce will be the toughest but they can work with the dosage or stop it earlier than planned. And always do your ACTs

Yes that is what the doctor said, actually he wanted to apply surgery on me after I took antibiotics for 2months.

I am also thinking about stem cell therapy. I find an article from Case university. They find stem cell therapy can help in some ways.

Really appreciate your feedback! I am more and more into antibiotics.

Did anyone have serious side effects from ARIKAYCE. Reading through the list from the drugs website is frightening! I was just told today that I need to start it.
